Inside the home
This is a solid 1900-era brick home in Downtown Brantford that has been steadily updated without losing its character. French doors, a wood staircase, and original-style trim give the main floor a feel you don't get in newer builds. Hardwood runs through most of the home, and the kitchen has been refreshed with white shaker cabinets and stainless appliances. Practical updates matter here: the lead water service was replaced in 2025, the sewer line in 2021, and the front porch was fully rebuilt in 2025. A new rear deck and wood privacy fence round out the exterior work. The main-floor laundry doubles as a half-bath, which works but is a space trade-off. The basement is unfinished and the backyard needs landscaping. For the price point and the age of the home, the major infrastructure items are largely addressed.
